Day of 2025-10-23

I started my day with a good run, and it really set the tone. There’s something refreshing about hitting the drit road in the forest early, even though the road was still little bit muddy — it clears my head and helps me focus better on the technical challenges ahead.

Market Update and Portfolio Movements Currently, my portfolio shows +238.951 $SURGE and 694.066345 $HIVE. I’ve been watching the numbers closely as I swing more of my positions back to $HIVE. The market has been unpredictable lately. $SURGE falling below 0.85$ to 0.75$. Make it for me more like to go further to the $SURGE side. These fluctuations are always part of the process.

Experimenting with Electron for Multi-Process Trading Scripts Today, I spent some time experimenting with Electron as a user interface for managing multiple Python processes — each running its own trading script. The idea was to create a visual dashboard that allows easier control and monitoring of all scripts simultaneously.

Electron’s flexibility makes it great for this purpose, even though integrating it with backend trading logic takes some effort. It’s fascinating to see how a UI framework designed for web apps can fit so neatly into trading automation. This setup could eventually make the management of bots and strategies much more intuitive.

Enhancing the Hive-Engine UI

After setting up the basic Electron interface, I checked the UI code in Git and worked on enhancing the Hive-Engine version. I wanted to make sure the layout display a bit wider, responsive, and provided the right data at a glance. A lot of focus went into improving the data presentation, especially for position presentation - show now cumalitve token and $HIVE value as well as positions address. The revised version feels smoother, and I can already see how it will simplify day-to-day monitoring once fully integrated. Continuous UI enhancement is as important as the backend logic — traders need clarity as much as accuracy. The candle diagram can be hide on toggle and has zoom feature.

Troubleshooting API and Connection Issues

During the day, I ran into some issues accessing the Hive-Engine page, even though the bot itself was still functioning. After some digging, I realized the problem was related to timeouts while requesting settings data from the Tribaldex API. It wasn’t a major bug, but enough to cause delays in how fast the bot could fetch configuration data. I managed to implement a fix that retries failed requests intelligently, ensuring smoother operation. The patch is working well locally, but I haven’t pushed the changes to the repository yet — I’ll do that after more testing.

Exploring ZeroMQ for Scalable Messaging Later, I explored ZeroMQ in Python to see if it could be useful for horizontal scaling of trading systems. It’s a lightweight and fast messaging library that can efficiently handle communication between multiple processes or even different machines. This could be the key to expanding trading operations without overloading a single instance. The flexibility of ZeroMQ makes it ideal for dynamic environments where bots need to share real-time data or signals. If this works as expected, it might become the backbone for a more distributed trading architecture.

Market Reflection and Current Status By the end of the day, everything was still down, and prices remain well below the 0.14 mark. It’s always tough watching the numbers dip, but volatility is part of the game.

Rather than reacting emotionally. Markets will rise and fall, but strong systems and disciplined approaches are what make the difference over time. For now, I’m keeping an eye on trends, testing improvements, and staying patient for the next upswing.
